Fayneese Miller, Erica Foster, Youths' Perceptions of Race, Class, and Language Bias in the Courts, The Journal of Negro Education, Vol. 71, No. 3, Juvenile Justice: Children of Color in the United States (Summer, 2002), pp. 193-204
The Political Rhetoric of Affirmative Action
An Examination of Social Adaptation Processes of Vietnamese Adolescents
The purpose of the study was to examine the factors that affect the ways in which Vietnamese youth feel about themselves and their "place" in society. More specifically, the purpose was to determine the relationship between sociocultural factors (L e. language proficiency, length of residence, socioeconomic class, ethnic identity, and cultural continuity) and such person-oriented variables as depression and alienation. Thrity-one college and fift…
Epilogue
In the Declaration of Independence, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are articulated as rights to which all "men" are entitled. These rights are placed within the context of equality. It is proposed in this article that the Declaration of Independence provides the material for Douglass's, Lincoln's, and King's reinterpretation and reiteration of the rights and principles of democracy and equality. Affirmative action is presented as a c…
Looking Toward the Future
Discussions about affirmative action often exclude the perspective of young people, especially secondary-aged students. The purpose of this article is to present young people's attitudes and beliefs about affirmative action. A second purpose is to link perspectives about affirmative action to beliefs about one's future or the American Dream. A summary of 161 high school students' responses to items included in a survey package is presented. It wa…
The Contextualization of Affirmative Action
One purpose of this article is to chronicle the progression of affirmative action. A second purpose is to show how affirmative action has benefited all of society and not just a select few. The authors of this article move from a critique of the history of affirmative action to an assessment of the current political climate. It is argued that a rollback of affirmative action practices will have long-term effects on the educational and job opportu…
The personal and the political in reasoning and action
Socialization differs for political issues with personal relevance to U.S. adolescents
Coping with Communicentric Bias in Knowledge Production in the Social Sciences
The authors examine several problems posed for emperical and theoretical research by the achievement of hegemony by one culture or system of thought over others. The issue is addressed from the special perspective of social scientists of African American descent who practice in a European /American dominant society. Several highly respected tenets of science, such as objectivity, positivism, and logical consistency, are questioned as to their uni…
Network Structure Support
People's attitudes toward self and others are a product of the type of interactions experienced in their social environment. Consistent with this reasoning, the object of this study was to ascertain the relative influence of stressful life events and social environmental variables, especially network structure support, on the self-esteem and trust level of Black females. One hundred and fifty-nine Black college females volunteered to complete six…
